from a tree that no longer exists:

After John Lawrence died Martha married Asa Hines, a man 17 years her junior who had worked on her farm and built her a house.
In 1858 Asa and Martha and her four younger Lawrence children moved to Deerfield, Vernon Co.,Mo. Several neighbors moved to Vernon co.,at the same time.
Martha stayed on the farm near Deerfield during the Civil War while Asa joined the Union Army,14th Kansas Cavalry,Co.B in 1863 at Fort Scott Kansas and served the remainder of the war. Ft. Scott was about 10 miles from the Hines farm.
They continued to live in Deerfield until 1875 when Asa and Martha moved to Redlands California in an effort to find relief for Asa's TB. Sometime in the 1880s they moved to San Jose, CA. where Asa died.
Martha continued to live with a daughter Sarah "Sade" in San Jose and Los Angeles until 1891 when she moved to Barton co.,Missouri and spent the rest of her life living with daughter Lizzie and son-in-law Marvin Wilson.
